TSB Revision

MULTIPORT FUEL INJECTION (MFI) <3.0L ENGINE>

13B-745

STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, diagnose CAN bus 
line.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
(1) Connect scan tool MB991958 to the data link connector.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Diagnose CAN bus line.
(4) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the CAN bus line normal?

YES : Go to Step 2.
NO :  Repair the CAN bus line. Refer to GROUP 54C, 

Diagnosis 

− CAN Bus Diagnostics Table 

P.54C-17

. 

Then go to Step 4.

STEP 2. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) Read the ASC-DTC.
(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is the ASC-DTC set?

YES : Refer to GROUP 35C, Diagnosis 

− Diagnostic 

Trouble Code Chart 

P.35C-18

.

NO :  Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC 

again.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC U0415 set?

YES : Replace the ECM. When the ECM is replaced, 

register the ID code. Refer to GROUP 42B, Diagnosis 
− ID Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles 

with KOS> 

P.42B-15

 or GROUP 42C, Diagnosis 

− ID 

Codes Registration Judgment Table <Vehicles with 
WCM> 

P.42C-10

. Then go to Step 4.

NO :  It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent 

of CAN bus line between ECM and ASC-ECU. Refer 
to GROUP 00, How to Use 
Troubleshooting/Inspection Service Points 

− How to 

Cope with Intermittent Malfunctions 

P.00-15

.

STEP 4. Using scan tool MB991958, read the diagnostic 
trouble code (DTC).
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(2) After the MFI-DTC has been deleted, read the MFI-DTC 

again.

(3) Turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position.
Q: Is DTC U0415 set?

YES : Retry the troubleshooting.
NO :  The inspection is complete.

DTC U1180: Combination Meter Time-Out 

CAUTION

• If the ECM output the DTC U1180, make sure 

to diagnose the CAN bus line.

• Before replacing the ECU, make sure that the 

communication circuit is operating normally.
